Situated in Lakeland’s highly desirable Historic Lake Morton District, this beautifully maintained Mediterranean Bungalow seamlessly combines historic charm with modern convenience. The main house offers 2 bedrooms, 1 bath, and a sunroom, along with inviting living spaces that include a cozy living room with a wood-burning fireplace, a formal dining room, a bright breakfast nook, and a spacious laundry room. Original wood floors (recently refinished) run throughout the home, complemented by plantation shutters, glass doorknobs, and granite countertops. Recent updates include fresh interior paint, new bathroom vanities, updated lighting fixtures and updated plumbing. The fully remodeled rear structure expands the property’s versatility, featuring one designated bedroom, a large open space, and two full bathrooms. This additional space, perfect for a workshop, yoga studio, home office, or guest suite, also boasts two new vanities and modern finishes. A decorative window, sourced from a historic downtown Lakeland barbershop, adds character to the structure. Outdoor spaces include a screened rear porch, a private garden, and xeriscaped landscaping with an irrigation system. The lot features mature staghorn fern, fruit trees, including a 30-foot avocado tree and a kumquat tree. Additional highlights include a concrete roof with a transferable 10-year warranty (sealed in 2018), natural gas availability, and a transferrable termite bond through Massey that includes annual inspections and exterior plugs for subterranean treatment. Historic details like a clawfoot tub, French doors and push-button light switches preserve the home’s character, while modern updates such as granite countertops and newly remodeled spaces ensure comfort and functionality. Set in a prime location within walking distance to Lake Morton, the Polk Museum of Art, Lake Hollingsworth, and downtown Lakeland, this home offers a perfect balance of charm, history, and modern living.
